The Library: Your Best FREE Choice for Movies

Free DVD

My husband and I enjoy watching videos and DVDs on the weekends. It’s a nice frugal form of entertainment, and we get to spend some quality “just the two of us” time together after our son is in bed. Here’s the thing, we’re renovating and on a “no extras” budget.

Fortunately for us our local public library is well-stocked with VHS and DVD choices and it’s all free! What I really like about borrowing movies from the library is that we can take them home for a whole week. If we don’t get a chance to watch our selections, we can go online and renew for another week, still at no cost.

We also let our son pick out a movie each week to watch in the evenings. The library has some great choices, besides the popular titles, we find documentaries, old comedies, musicals…you name it! If you want great, free entertainment, you can’t go wrong with the library.
